That's every video he makes. Every book is somehow the best, the greatest, the coolest, the darkest. I stopped taking him seriously since his Beckett trilogy video, where he was obviously filtered but was dick riding Beckett anyway.

Benjamin Mcevoy is cool and probably the most /lit/ of them all.
Like the other anon suggested, Krimsonrogue has entertaining multi-hour videos on shitty books by lolcows/internet personalities that are good to listen to, but he also inundates his reviews with Nostalgia Critic tier reddit humor that can get annoying.

I think Q was the only one who I could ever admire and actually enjoy the videos, because he was actually creative with what he produced. For LeafbyLeaf and Benjamin McEvoy, while I sort of respect their taste and dedication, their videos are boring and useless. They produce videos which I think they of course wouldn't watch themselves, which to me is a betrayal of the audience. Their videos have no reason to exist except as "vlogs" to gratify the egos of the producers, so they are no better than influencers who are the scum of the earth. Same with Write Conscious unfortunately even though he tries a bit harder. There are no good booktubers aside from Q and most of his stuff is deleted.

Outlaw Bookseller is my personal favorite, and is definitely the best science fiction youtuber there is. His series on The Elements of Science Fiction was one of the things that got me to start reading sf.

Yeah I don't get it, he's a pretty smart guy, why does he literally think that Trump (a bog standard 90s NYC liberal) will round up and execute the gays. And he turns into a fedora-tipper whenever philosophy, religion, or metaphysics is mentioned, yet he acts as if his own exact strain of liberalism is a universally binding standard, going so far as to preface discussions of ancient authors with a litany of their perceived sins.
